Windows 8 will have two versions of Internet Explorer 10: a conventional browser that lives on the legacy desktop, and a
new Metro-style, touch-friendly browser that lives in the Metro world. The second of these, the Metro browser, will not
support any plugins <https://blogs.msdn.com/b/b8/archive/2011/09/14/metro-style-browsing-and-plug-in-free-html5.aspx>.
Whether Flash, Silverlight, or some custom business app, sites that need plugins will only be accessible in the
non-touch, desktop-based browser.
